Gentlemen:

This refers to the Merger Implementing 'Agreement entered into this date between Union Pacific Railroad Company, Southern Pacific Lines and the United Transportation Union. The parties hereto realize that the merger of the former properties into a unified system is a complex undertaking and with the changes in operations and seniority territories, employees covered by this Agreement will be required to perform service on unfamiliar territory.

Familiarization will be a large undertaking, and it is to the benefit of both parties that this process begin as soon as possible so that implementation can occur in a more orderly and rapid manner. Therefore, it is understood that Carrier may begin qualifying trainmen on unfamiliar territory, to the extent it is feasible based upon operational and manpower constraints, between time of execution of this Implementing Agreement and date of implementation thereof.

It is understood that familiarization will be accomplished in. accordance with Article V - Familiarization of this Agreement. Employees making familiarization trips which involve greater mileages than their existing (pre-merger) runs will be paid actual mileage to the new objective terminal as contemplated in Article I of this Agreement. Local UTU officers will work with local Carrier officers to implement this Side Letter in the most effective manner.

If the foregoing adequately and accurately describes our agreement in this regard, please so indicate by signing in the space provided for that purposes below.


Yours truly,
M. A. Hartman
General Director-Labor Relations


AGREED:
R. D. Hogan. Jr.
